Understanding Major Unusual Incidents

The Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD) has a Major Unusual Incidents Registry Unit which is charged with providing oversight to Ohio’s health and welfare quality improvement system.

The MUI unit strives to work cooperatively with people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, families, county boards, and providers to protect Ohioans, highlighting that all incidents are important and investigated.

Unusual incidents (UIs) are investigated by providers, and major unusual incidents (MUIs) are investigated by county boards of developmental disabilities or developmental center investigators.
